Is it normal for men to be propositioned by swingers, and what makes a man an attractive candidate to swinger couples? (lemmy.autism.place)

I have been propositioned by swingers quite a bit. It's to the point that if a couple is nice to me, I start getting suspicious. This has happened with acquaintances, long-time friends, people I've met at a party, co-workers, and even strangers at the beach. Three times that I can remember off the top of my head, they propositioned me and my girlfriend at the time (separate girls many years apart). Is this a normal thing? What about me could make me attractive to swinger couples?

I'm a cis-gendered straight male. As far as physical attractiveness, I would say I'm slightly above average based on what women have told me and how they treat me.

I've asked people to join threesomes before, and I ask hot and cool people with style.

I first read that as you stylishly asking people to have a 3-way.

Haha, yea, unintentional but fairly accurate.

I absolutely love that character-people-drawing

There's a word for that I don't know?

Type-doodle?

They're called kaomoji, like emoji. In Japanese, emoji means "image-letters" and kaomoji means "face-letters." The English word for them is probably emoticons, but that more refers to things like :-) and xD. Kaomoji can be called "Japanese emoticons."

If you have an Android phone, your keyboard has built-in kaomoji ヾ⁠(⁠ ͝⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ͡⁠°⁠)⁠ノ⁠♪. You can access them by opening up the emoji panel at the bottom left, then tapping the ":-)" button at the bottom right, which contains some western emoticons but many categories of kaomoji
